    Brompton conversion... would this Whoosh kit work?

    try this link: https://ecycles.blogspot.com/p/brompton-electric-kit-solicitar.html I deleted it because it was confusing. The motor itself can be used with my Torque Sensor kit, Lishui seat tube controller, HL controller and plain old fashioned rectangular box controller like in the Swytch.

    Hi. First ebike conversion.

    actual number of Lithium ion cells in series in a '48V' is 13 compared to 10 in a 36V pack, so the increase in capacity for the same AH is 30%. You want to know which cells are used in your battery for precise comparison. I use Samsung 18650-35E for the 36V 8AH battery, 18650-29E for 36V 15AH...

    What do people think of this e-bike?

    it is excellent value for the price. Good shocks, good battery, good torque. On the negative side, you still have to fit mudguards, chainguard, lights, bell etc. It also has a torque sensor system, meaning it's hard work to climb hills. You have to put in between 30% to 50% of the effort...

    Help! Winter is eating my bike alive.

    hybrid bikes are probably best suited to your need. Good paint, internal cable routing, simple wiring, hydraulic brakes, full size mudguards all help. Additionally, if you can find a bike with hub gear and full chain cover, consider it. My Woosh Camino and Faro are very good for all weather...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Cummings managed to drive a wedge between opposition parties, that's why. more would have voted for them to stop the tories if Swinson and Corbyn could do a deal.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    wasn't there some rumour that Farage is bored with his BXP business and wants to start a new business called the Reform party?

    BREXIT the silver lining or lead cosh?

    I think the market's response to Bojo's announcement that the transition will not be extended is clear: the market likes certainty (UK will ratify the WAB in the next few weeks) but not him removing the flexibility at the end of the transition. Johnson does not have to do that, bravado costs jobs.

    BREXIT the silver lining or lead cosh?

    if the UK removes anti-dumping duty on Chinese bikes, I think export of e-bikes from UK will need certificate of origin from 2021.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    that caller is not alone. QUOTE: The caller continued: "A leader that can just be modern and reach out to everybody, because at the moment the Labour Party's trying to find voters that don't even exist anymore, that generation's gone." He added the Labour Party needs to "go and find out what...

    Woosh bikes, any fazua's?

    all woosh bikes have freewheel - there is no drag when the power ceases. If you want a lightweight bike, the Faro is very good. I ride one for nearly a year now.

    what is the point for politics if not getting into power?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    now you know the figure, are you still convinced that Corbyn didn't blow it?

    I like that idea myself.

    First conversion - advice needed!

    the factory I use has their spoke machine for many years now. The wheels are the same as used on my Faro. I can easily check by using the same frame as reference. The side benefit of assembling our own bikes is we learn fast how to fix problems. If my customers have any problem, we ask them...

    First conversion - advice needed!

    if the OP bought my kit, I'll make sure that every project will work out as smoothly as possible. That's what support means to us. PS: MXUS XF08C: 140mm dropout (OLD) Aikema 13.0 SX: 135mm dropout (OLD) Same price.

    First conversion - advice needed!

    she's got a Ridley road bike, they aren't cheap. If it were my bike, I wouldn't want to spoil the look with a cheap ebay kit with wires everywhere. something like this:

    Brompton conversion... would this Whoosh kit work?

    estimate is based on current exchange rate $1.30 for £1. If you need a new LCD (to share the same battery between 2 bikes), it's £45. The new cradle comes with the controller, you don't need to fork out more money for it. a new pedal sensor costs £12.
